/******************************************************************************
* Note for NixOS users *
******************************************************************************
*
* GnuCash relies on the GConf daemon to store and retrieve its internal
* configuration. That daemon implements a Windows-like, system-wide registry,
* which is very hard to support on NixOS because the concept is inherently
* impure. To register GnuCash's configuration schemas with GConf, you have to
* add ${gnucash}/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults to GConf's search path, i.e. by
* adding the line
*
* xml:readonly:$(HOME)/.nix-profile/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/
*
* to ~/.gconf.path in your user's home directory. Furthermore, the line
*
* services.dbus.packages = [ pkgs.gnome.GConf ];
*
* must be added to /etc/nixos/configuration.nix to make sure the DBus daemon
* knows about GConf and starts it automatically whenever a program (such as
* GnuCash) needs it.
/* If you experience GConf errors when running GnuCash on NixOS, see
* http://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Solve_GConf_errors_when_running_GNOME_applications
* for a possible solution.
